I was wondering if anyone has tried one of the new Radeon Xpress boards yet?
The only one available around here (Canada) is the MSI board. Any comments
appreciated.

I'm still waiting on someone elses. I want something other than
PCI slots for future expansion. I like the Jetway one the best,
but no site of it yet.

Look at the A210GDAG PRO

It has some BIOS upgrades to go, but a nice overall board so far.

The built in fan speed/voltage controller works (for both fan headers).
Dont skimp on cheap memory, or poorly mismatched memory. Mine is stable with
4 x 512 Kingston sticks, dual channel 128bit mode.

Check the MSI forum, there is more to learn there. The board has no
overclocking features, yet.

Mine runs silent with a 3800+ and Zalman 7000a , controlled onboard.

The XPress 200 onboard video, isnt completely usless. Of course you wont be
settings game details to High with it, but games (BF Vietnam, SW: Republic
Commando, Far Cry) are all very playable. They just look alittle uglier then
you may be use to :)
 
Thanks for the info. Are you running 4x512 of DDR400 @400? I presently have
an Asus A8V Dlx and I have to use the 2T command to run @400. It's smooth
but I want to run full speed without the performance loss so I'm looking at
the Radeon Xpress boards as an option.
